Nice shave tonite, all old spice, and all nice. Super rich lather tonite, the scent on my old vintage Old Spice soap is very gentle. This is only the second shave with my old (1917-1918) Wester-Stone Damascas brand razor. This thing is wicked good. 2 passes and I was DFS happy.
Love the pics men, Happy Shaving!!
